"The Man Who Lost the Sea" is a science fiction short story by Theodore Sturgeon. Originally published in the October 1959 issue of ''The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction'', it was nominated for (but did not win) the 1960 Hugo Award for Best Short Fiction. Writing in ''The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction'', John Clute described "The Man Who Lost the Sea" as "strong, immeasurably complex, word-perfect and deeply fixative to the reader's memory". ==Plot summary== When the story opens, the reader is introduced to a boy who is showing a model helicopter to a person described as a "sick man" on a beach. As the story progresses, the models shown by the boy increase in sophistication, first a rocket plane and then an interplanetary spacecraft. The reader also learns of significant events in the boy's life, including his fascination with the Sputnik satellite and a near-drowning experience while swimming in the ocean. Eventually, the reader is told that the boy and the sick man are the same person, an injured astronaut who is regaining consciousness after a crash landing on Mars. The story is told as a second-person narrative (i.e., "You raised your head ...", "If you were the kid ...").
